Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that Israel intends to dismantle what he called a political and media ‘blockade’ led by Qatar and China, speaking at a Jerusalem event welcoming a bipartisan delegation of US state lawmakers.
Addressing attendees at the “Fifty States – One Israel” gathering at Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Netanyahu alleged that Beijing and Doha fund a ‘media blockade’ operating in Western countries, including the United States.
"We are fighting this, and we will also invest a lot of money, large resources in efforts to repel this part of the blockade," he noted.
“The media blockade that is financed with huge money, both by Qatar and by other countries like China, and they are also operating in the West and no less so in the US,” he added.
China and Qatar have not commented on Netanyahu's accusations at the time of publication.
The prime minister also warned Western nations about political pressure from ‘vocal, violent’ Muslim communities, which he claimed had hampered Israel’s access to weapons from abroad.
"In the coming years, we will need to strengthen our own arms industries, so that we have independence in armaments in the industrial capacity to produce them, and therefore we will break through this blockade," he stated.
Netanyahu dismissed concerns of global isolation, stressing Israel’s close alliance with Washington.
"Have they achieved global isolation? No. The US is with us and so are many other countries [...] Just as we succeeded with the military blockade, we will also succeed with the political blockade," Netanyahu added.
The prime minister welcomed what organisers described as the largest bipartisan US delegation of state legislators to visit Israel, with 250 lawmakers from all 50 states scheduled for a week-long program.

00:00First of all, my goal is to attack us, as the Iranians hit on us, and that this attack will actually be recognized for us.
00:10We all saw this attack, and we also know that there is now an attack of attack attack on Israel on behalf of different bodies and different countries,
00:20and that this attack is also a attack of attack, which is a attack of attack, also from Qatar and other countries, like the Sin,
00:30and they are also working in the United States, and not least in the United States.
00:34I am happy to see the biggest attack of the terrorists from the United States in Israel.
00:41We are fighting on this, and we also will fight, and we will fight, and fight, with great money, and great energy,
00:48in the efforts to attack that part of the attack.
00:52The second part is more focused, and it is focused in European countries,
00:58in the administration of the Muslim authorities there, which are colonists, illimists, and over the countries.
01:07And therefore, we see that this attack is focused in Europe.
01:12And there I have been told that we are forced to attack attack attack, and that's what happens now.
01:16We need, in the near the years, to determine our actions of attack attack,
01:22so that there is an action of attack attack, in terms of attack attack, in the ability of attack attack.
01:30And therefore, we will fight this attack attack.
01:33So, if the United States has changed, not the United States and other countries.
01:38But there is a problem, currently in Europe, and we are working, and we will continue to fight,
01:44to destroy this attack.
01:46As we succeeded with the attack attack, so we will succeed in the attack attack.
